Default RE: Level nock travel?

Nock travel can be an issue but with the programs available today for arrow selection it becomes relatively non issue.I set up My 2001 Ultratec on my Archers Advantage last week and it told me to shoot a Redline 600 at 44#.I had some here that I was going to give my nephew so I decided to try them.Went out set the bow up and with a fallaway rest the paper was perfect at 3 feet,so I stepped back to 10 feet and the paper was still perfect.I was amazed that just eyeballing the bow with a perfect arrow that it tuned perfect.It was set a little nock high but who cares.I shot my best indoor score last weekend with it.Went out today and I was absolutely on fire but I have changed over to a 3d setup now and at 54# and 395. mags I had a 3 arrow 2" group at 60 yards before it got dark.I did it 2 times in a row.Not bragging and this is not my usuall but today it was what I was doing.The bows are better than we are.I havn't noticed the program telling me to go stiffer and even in a lot of cases with Carbon Express it will tell me to go lighter than their charts.

So it is not really that big a deal to have a little nock travel but I do agree that the older 1 cams did have too much.

It may present more of a problem for the long draw short bow users but they already have some things to overcome.
